Logging License Consumption dashboard

Logging License Consumption dashboard

This feature is available only to specific Chronosphere Observability Platform users, and has not been announced or officially released. Do not share or discuss this feature, or information about it, with anyone outside of your organization.

The Logging License Consumption dashboard monitors your persisted writes, persisted volume, and ingest limit consumption against your logging license quotas over a given time span, defaulting to the last 30 minutes. The dashboard also includes the number of logs dropped per minute, and the percentage of total logs that were dropped. A separate panel displays this information for each of your defined log datasets.

The Total panel group includes the following panels, which you can use to pinpoint spikes in your persisted writes, and identify which services are consuming the greatest portion of your license consumption. The dashboard includes each of these panels in a Per Dataset panel group, which shows the same information for your defined datasets.

Persisted data

The following panels display persisted log data for your datasets:

  • The Persisted Logs Per Minute panel displays the total persisted bytes of log data per minute for all of your combined log datasets. Dropped logs aren't factored into this calculation.
  • The Total Persisted Volume panel displays the total volume of persisted bytes of log data per minute over the past 30 days. If the panel query doesn't display any data, edit the panel query to display data for a shorter time period.

Dropped data

The following panels display dropped log data for your datasets:

  • The Dropped Logs Per Minute panel displays the total number of bytes of log data that were dropped.
  • The Dropped Percentage panel displays the total number of bytes of log data that were dropped, divided by the total persisted bytes of log data.

Ingested data

The following panels display ingested log data for your datasets:

  • The Ingest Limit Per Minute panel displays the total amount of ingested bytes of log data per minute.
  • The Ingested Versus Limit Per Minute panel displays the received, persisted, and dropped number of bytes of log data on a graph against your logging license limit.

Volume analysis

The Ad Hoc Volume Analysis panel displays a time chart that includes the number of persisted bytes of log data per minute, broken down by individual service. Use this panel to understand which of your services are consuming the most persisted bytes of your log data license.
